It's pretty amazing that the Indiana Pacers have led a major majority of the opening two games yet trail in the series 2-Zip.
For the second straight game, the Chicago Bulls struggled with the eight seed Indiana Pacers.
Forget about Saturday afternoon's game; the Bulls won and are going to beat the Pacers again tonight, this time very handily.
The Chicago Bulls' 104-99 victory over the Indiana Pacers on Saturday wasn't the team's prettiest win of the season. It took 39 points from Derrick Rose and another 18 from Luol Deng to get past the eighth seeded Pacers.
During game one of the Bulls first round matchup against the Pacers on Saturday, I was a little uneasy with the way things were playing out in Chicago's 104-99 win.
Derrick Rose, once again, found a way amaze everyone watching as his 39 points and numerous highlights led the Chicago Bulls past the Indiana Pacers in game one of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals.
Game one may not have gone the exact way that the Chicago Bulls wanted, but they got a win and that's all that really matters in the playoffs.
Defense was a priority for Tom Thibodeau's Chicago Bulls all season. And after the team's performance in game one against the Indiana Pacers, it's pretty safe to say that the coach wasn't happy with what he saw.
There wasn't a stingier team on defense than the Chicago Bulls during the season. So they weren't thrilled after their playoff opener against the Indiana Pacers.
It was not exactly the formula they drew up beforehand but a win is a win as the Bulls defeated the Pacers 104-99. The Bulls did not have their first lead until 48 seconds remained when Kyle Korver hit a three point field goal. Korver definitely had his shooting eye as he was 4/4 from behind the arc.
